Hebrew Voices #249 – Ginsburg’s Lost Masorah
July 22, 2026
In this episode of Hebrew Voices #249 - Ginsburg's Lost Masorah: Part 1, Nehemia Gordon sits down with Dr. David Moster, Director of the Biblical Hebrew Program at the Jewish Theological Seminary, to trace the remarkable detective story behind his peer-reviewed article "A Chance Discovery." Together they unpack the world of Christian David Ginsburg, who became the unlikely founder of modern Masoretic studies, and reveal how a four-volume, 2,500-page monument of biblical scholarship turned out to be hiding a secret in plain sight!
I look forward to reading your comments!
